How bad is it If I go over my carb for 193 gram or so for 1 or 2 days but the rest of the days....within a week, I'm not going over? Wil it affect my weight much?

FYI, I'm not trying to lose my weight now, just try to maintain it not to let my weight goes up again...

:(

    Unless you have diabetes or insulin-resistance due to any metabolic disorder (in which case, it will hurt your glycemic control), it's no worse than going over on any other macro-nutrient ...

    Eating a TOTAL caloric excess, regardless of macro-nutrient profile will lead to weight gain. Eating any one to excess while maintaining a deficit will not.

    ^This.

    It is beneficial to make sure you are getting adequate protein and fats first though.
